Forward program schedules meeting

The Jacksonville Community Council Inc.'s Forward program hosts its ninth annual meeting from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Thursday at Theatre Jacksonville, 2032 San Marco Blvd.

Forward was created after a JCCI study identified a need for Jacksonville to find younger community leadership and get them involved in civic life.

The event will unveil plans for the upcoming 10th anniversary year and present the first "Forward Champion," Carla Marlier. A recently retired public relations professional, Marlier was part of the implementation of the 1996 study and served as program chairwoman in 2002.

To RSVP for the free event, e-mail lashun@jcci.org. For more information on JCCI Forward, go to www.jcciforward.org.
